Learn how to create an origami Snake through this course. The goal is to teach you how to make an "infinite" snake using a simplified modular version designed by Jo Nakashima. The course focuses on improving the head, simplifying the body, and streamlining the assembly process. By the end of the course, you will have the skills to fold and unfold along the diagonal, create pinch marks at specific points, fold waterbomb bases, and assemble the units to form the snake. The teaching method involves step-by-step instructions and visual demonstrations. This course is suitable for individuals with a low intermediate skill level in origami who are interested in creating modular origami designs.
Overview
Syllabus
Intro
Fold and unfold along the diagonal
Make a pinch at 1/2
Make a pinch at 1/4
Pinch at the intersection with the diagonal crease
This intersection is exactly at 1/5 of the length of the paper
Divide the paper into 5x5
Turn over (coloured side up)
Fold this simple pattern
Fold the waterbomb bases
One unit ready!
Lets make two special units: the tail and the head
Fold the corners
Fold the corner as shown
Make a symmetric crease
